Why do you think you might be going insane? I honestly wanna know because it seems like a weird way of thinking. What happened is you came to realize the existence of things society doesn't want you to believe and it changed your world view. You're not going insane bro.

You are going insane in the eyes of society.. though when one looks upon the definition of insanity.. the entire society is quite insane..

True, I hadn't seen it from that perspective because I had truly forgot how to think in that way.

Sounds similar to the spiritual awakenings of many people. I would suggest integrating daily meditation into your life and this awakening will most likely be greatly accelerated

Sometimes weird things can happen once you realize what you see/think. I've had a couple trips where I go wtf is the meaning of this? Everything happens for a reason when your in that state of mind in my opinion. Sometimes it's hard to figure something out when your tripping and bring it back to your everyday life..
That's the challenge, bringing your experiences back to your everyday life, making changes, and once you do it's a totally amazing thing. It took me a long time to figure that out, but now that I have it's perfect. I have changed but in a good way

Not insane. You just consumed some Entheogens and they did as prescribed.

Albert Hoffman felt as he was going insane (on LSD), but then he relaxed and enjoyed the beauty of his trip  You're definitely not insane... 99% of people who take psychedelics feel that

I started feeling that way after I started meditation..

Natives and other non western religions see humans as part of the world and universe. Because western society seems bent on raping the earth, abusing resources, etc, they have to make believe humans are something beyond the rest of the world... Gives us the excuse to do what we do... You are more sane than all of these abusers in my book.. It's they who are crazy
In American native cultures, they found that everything had a spirit... Every animal, plant or rock. It's always funny to me when you hear some white person say 'oh, that was sacred to the natives' idiots... Everything and every place was sacred. As such, we were just one with the world though to commune with the spirits might take something like Aya or mushrooms or a spirit quest or sun dance....
The natives who used them, feel that being on mushrooms puts us into the spirit world. We sense, feel, talk to and sometimes listen to the world and universe. Once that door is open, you can learn...
I find your trip experience normal and if anything, healthy.
Peace

The proverbial id of it all. Seeing the order of the disorder sometimes can be hard for some people to handle. The harder you look the farther it goes. Behind the energy is consciousness, behind the consciousness the void. And its all in an ever expanding fractal package. You're not crazy, you're on your way to realizing some profound truths. I sincerely hope you pursue these endeavours.

You have begun your journey to breaking free of the psychological bonds created by those who intend to keep you ignorant and under control.
If you don't mind the word enlighten, I would say that you have become enlightened to an aspect of your individual human experience that could quite likely change your entire perspective on reality.
Whether these thoughts are crazy or sound, you have awoken a part of yourself that has allowed you to see things from a new perspective.
I wouldn't call it insanity myself, and I am well versed in insanity. What I think you are describing is best encapsulated within a single concept, a single word: growth.

Archaic language, though often useful in expanding linguistic complexity, is not a replacement for writing long, complex sentences that have within them some hint at the depth and breadth of a knowledge that is immeasurable through so lowly a medium as the internet drug harm-reduction message board thread, a place where any idiot can say hast and whence without knowing the definitions of such formal conjugations. A mark of a confused person, to be sure. Especially when accompanied with so many malapropisms and non sequiturs.

Ok then; he used to be insane and through his coming enlightenment as it was put, he is moving farther away from it.

i have thought long and hard while tripping about the topic of sanity. nobody is ever sane. its like saying somebody is normal. if one person was normal we would all look the same. what kind of life would that be like? your not insane bro. ur probably more sane now then other people in society.

Who is normal then? The norm is an awerage of all the uniqueness.. Now that.. is not normal.. being a bit of absolutely everything at once.. having absolutely every opinion at once, even though they are contradictory.. thats is not normal.

Normal distribution
A normal distribution looks like this:

Most people are normal. The normal ones are the 68.26% which fall within one standard deviation of the mean.

This is actually the main reason I want to hit it again. It's been a long time and I was pretty young last time, but I've been studying a lot of higher consciousness and third eye stuff and really hoping revisiting will help to get to that next level.
Does anyone recommend meditation while tripping? I'm kinda afraid it might be overboard (like I said its been a while)

I've thought about it before never actually tried it. It could totally change how a person were to interpret the world. Maybe I'll do some research and try it my next experience.

Its good u can see stuff like that. You'll sense some freaking emotions and vibes nd shit. the trick is to not let them cotrnol your own emotions. Thinks of all these vibes you're picking up- how many peoples' emotions are the result of feeding into the emotions of others?
